sibunas: ❛ you can’t just go around and steal from people. ❜ nina to marilyn!
the word ‘steal’ twists her stomach into knots; “i’m not a thief,” she reassures, almost too quickly, in her anxiety. immediately, marilyn goes digging into her satchel for the pen causing all this trouble. it’s such a trivial thing to make her so nervous -- but her record is squeaky clean, and marilyn doesn’t exactly appreciate being accused; she’s already an easy target because of her upbringing, “it was a mistake, really. i didn’t know this was yours. here -- you can have it back.”
